Though Russia has plenty of big city glitz and glamour, it’s also home to some spectacular nature. The province of Siberia in the far north is no exception – vast, wild and rugged, it is stunning any time year. If you’re planning a Russian trip next year to one of the World Cup 2018 host cities, consider venturing out beyond the city limits and take a look for yourself. Shout out to The Siberian Times for sharing some of their pics.
